6 T butter
1 C Chopped yellow onion
1 C Diced celery
4 Cloves garlic
12 oz (1 can) evaporated milk
32 oz Chicken stock
4 C cooked and shredded chicken
1 t dried thyme
2 t pepper
Salt to taste
Dumplings
2 C all purpose flour
1 T + 1 t baking powder
1 t pepper
1 t salt
1 t dried thyme
3/4 c whole milk
4 T melted butter
In a large heavy bottom pot, melt butter. Add onions, carrot, celery and cook for 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add evaporated milk and chicken stock and quickly stir to combine. Bring to a boil, then add chicken, thyme, pepper and salt. Let the soup simmer uncovered while you make the dumplings.
To make the dumplings, mix all dry ingredients in a large bowl. Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in milk and melted butter. Stir together until a dough ball forms. Use a large cookie scoop to drop dough directly into the simmering soup. Place dough balls around the pot and press them into the pot so the soup runs over the top. Place the lid on the pot and lower the heat to simmer. Cook for 15 minutes and cut into one dumpling to check if it is doughy. If it is, cook for an additional 2-3 minutes
